Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
$500,000 Bridge Financing
On April 30, 2009 (the “April Financing Date”), i2 Telecom International, Inc. (the “Company”) closed a financing transaction with 10 accredited investors (collectively the “Investors”) in which it sold to each such Investor (i) 12% Non-Negotiable Secured Promissory Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $500,000 (the “$500,000 Notes”) and (ii) a 5-year warrant to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value, at $0.08 per share (the “Warrants”). Each $500,000 Note also includes the payment of either (i) a loan origination fee of $50,000 or (ii) $100,000 of the Company’s common stock. The Investors were also granted an aggregate 5% participation in future monetization, sales, licenses, and royalty revenues for the Company’s patent #7,460,480, “Dynamically Adapting the Transmission Rate of Packets in Real-Time VoIP Communications to the Available Bandwidth” technology (“Patent Participation”).
The “$500,000 Maturity Date” of the $500,000 Notes is the sooner of (i) 3 business days after the closing of a financing for a minimum of $4,000,000 (the “Financing”) by the Company (the “Closing Date”) and (ii) 90 days from the April Financing Date. If the Company does not pay the principal of the $500,000 Notes and any accrued interest thereon by the $500,000 Maturity Date, then (i) the Company must issue to each Investor an additional 5-year warrant to purchase an aggregate 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.08 per share for each thirty (30) day period that the $500,000 Notes and any accrued interest thereon go unpaid (“Additional Warrants”), and (ii) the Patent Participation shall increase by an additional 1.25%. If the Closing Date does not occur within 90 days of the April Financing Date, then (i) the entire principal and any accrued interest thereon will be due and payable on the Investors’ demand at any time after the $500,000 Maturity Date, and (ii) the interest rate will increase to 18%.
If the Company obtains less than $4,000,000 in financing, then the Company shall pre-pay each Investor (i) fifty percent (50%) of the total principal and interest due upon the completion of $2,000,000 in total financing; and (ii) seventy-five percent (75%) of the total principal and interest due upon the completion of $3,000,000 in total financing. The $500,000 Notes are secured by all assets of the Company, subordinated to $1,512,500 of senior secured debt and pari-passu with $3,525,000 of subordinated secured debt.
The Company shall provide “piggyback” registration rights for the Warrants and Additional Warrants on any registration statement filed within 180 days of the April Financing Date. The holders of the Warrants also have the right to participate in any registration for a registered public offering involving an underwriting. Additionally, the holders of at least a majority of the Warrants may submit a written request after 180 days from the April Financing Date demanding that the Company register the Warrants, pursuant to which the Company shall use its best efforts to prepare and file a registration statement within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such request.
The foregoing securities were issued in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder. The securities issued in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and until so registered the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or availability of an applicable exemption from registration.
